Pay entrance and eat as much as you want: American cafes that surprised an immigrant

“In the USA, establishments where you pay for admission and can eat as much as you want are very common and in great demand. Roughly speaking, like a buffet that is available in all-inclusive hotels. But, of course, you can’t take food out,” the author writes. "Blog about the USA" on Yandex.Zen.

Next - from the first person.

When we went there for the first time, we couldn’t stop, and we were so full that we couldn’t move. I love sushi, and there are so many types of it. Before moving to the USA, I was used to the fact that going to eat sushi in a restaurant is not that cheap.

Such restaurants are called Buffet. That's what we call them - "buffets". They are available in different national cuisines, I prefer Chinese ones, so I’ll tell you about them.

In those that are more expensive, entrance to the establishment at lunch will cost $13, and in the evening - $20. They differ from cheap ones in the higher quality of food, and they always have crab legs and delicious mussels. By the way, a great snack for beer lovers. It's for them that we usually go there. Very comfortably. You come with a group and you can sit there as long as you like.

And, of course, my favorite sushi. They are really very tasty here and it is simply impossible to stop when you eat them. There are different types, even fried.

Desserts, by the way, are also very tasty here. There are also different fruits. It’s very difficult for me personally to decide for dessert in such an institution, because I just can’t eat anymore.

There are cheaper buffets; my husband and I usually go there when we’re too lazy to cook. Admission during the day costs $8, in the evening - $12.

It’s a bit simpler, but there is also a huge selection of different dishes. The same huge amount of sushi, all kinds of meat, fish and Chinese soups. There are less sweets here, and they are not so tasty.

I like to eat crayfish in one of these places. They cook them in some sort of sauce, so they taste just amazing and very juicy.

I also like the fact that there is the opportunity to take raw vegetables, meat or shrimp on a plate, and right in front of you, everything will be fried in 5 minutes.

If you are in the USA, be sure to go to one of these buffets, you will definitely not regret it.

By the way, you know what surprises me. We, with our Russian-speaking friends, go there and always try to eat something unusual there that you cannot eat every day. But some Americans come, they pay the same money for admission as we do, but they just take french fries and, for example, chicken in batter. Or the Chinese, for example, they usually take a whole plate of rice with some meat.
